HELP Microtech LT10 13B Rx7 Wont start!!
 
hey guys im in need of some help. my fd does not want to start. the microtech is wired up correctly im sure. yellow light flashes when i crank and green is always on indicating power. the red light flashes SOMETIMES when i crank but not all the time. its an error code screen 33? Tha car struggles to start and almost does but it just wont. took off the spark plugs and 2 of em were wet (fuel) im guessing its flooding? Smells like alot of fuel under the hood. the car started fiune before but we left it sitting for about 6 months. Like i said it struggles to start and almost does but it just wont. Any ideas guys??

Probably just flooded. Take out your EGI relay, crank it for 5 seconds, put the relay back in and try again.

You may need to do this a couple times but mine did this with a stock ECU. Took about 30 minutes of going back and forth with it to finally get it to fire and now it's usually fine.

Probably a good idea to get a fuel cut off switch. That way you can keep it from flooding regularly.

if its been sitting for a long time do an old school trick we used in el barrio all the time. Since you are fuel injected take a siringe full of oil, take one spark plug out per rotor since you are fuel injected and sqirt it thru the hole. That will make compression way easier. If you were carburated pur some thru the butterflies

I actually tried that and it didn't work for me. I had to do the EGI relay trick. Every car is different, though!

im sure is just the tune. play with the water map . no need to do all that oil crap.

doesnt the microtech come with a stock tune for the 13b fd? it still has stock primaries and secondaries.

is a tune just for start up . after that you have to fix up the tune. driving on the map that comes with is not recommended

if the red light comes on it refers to references and home on the hand controller i just would send it back have them run some test and see what they say. if they say its good check ground were your micro tech is hooked up sometimes it comes with a mat that u put it on sometimes removing that gets rid of the code and then make sure to clear the block of stagnate fuel and try starting it.

You are fuel infused take a siring full of oil, take one start attachment out for each rotor inasmuch as you are fuel infused and squirt it thru the hole.
